Techno Futurist

Keeping abreast of cutting edge of technology & research in order to anticipate future threats while keeping one foot planted solidly in current Cybersecurity Best Practices means effectively mitigating existing threats while being prepared for a dynamic threat landscape.

Breaking Down Silos

Working collaboratively with non-cybersecurity teams, from safety to engineering, in order to ensure full coverage of a product is imperative. These interpersonal relationships also allow for staying ahead of potential security issues throughout the product development lifecycle.

Creative Solutions.

Attackers do not follow the rules. A hardware penetration tester shouldn’t either. One must think outside the box & eschew by the book methods. Having a background in many industries gives a different perspective than a linear career through security or engineering,.

EXPERIENCE

A hacker has to think differently in order to be effective. My experience in many industries gives me a unique perspective as i approach challenges from hacking to people management.
